Operation

During operation, the trimmer may throw objects
in the operator's or a bystander's direction,
causing injury.
Wear safety goggles or other suitable eye
protection, long pants, and shoes while
operating the trimmer.
Keep bystanders away from the work area.
When the trimmer is running the cutting head is
spinning. If you contact the cutting line or cutting
head, you could be injured.
Keep the cutting head away from your hands,
feet, and bystanders. Keep the guard in place
and in working order.
Wear shoes and long pants when using the
trimmer.
Ensure that the cutting head has stopped and
you disconnect the trimmer from the power
source before you service or examine the
cutting head. Do not start the trimmer unless
your hands are on both handles and the
cutting head is down near the ground.
Do not allow the trimmer to cut into the cord.
